1) Rude Parrot India Pale Ale

Brewed with Vienna, light Crystal, and a touch of Honey malt, this golden hued IPA is aggressively hopped with Simcoe and Citra hops. A big juicy, tropical fruit hop nose yields way to an off dry, pleasantly bitter finish. IBU: 75 ABV: 5.9%

This Blonde Ale has a summery golden color. It has delicate hop notes with a light, floral citrus aroma. This is a crisp ale with a clean and dry finish. Light in body and very refreshing, a real thirst quenching beer. IBU: 16 ABV 4.5%

2) Flying Monkey Pale Ale

Northwest twist on a Pale Ale, with a bright and deep golden color and a crisp citrusy nose. Although hop-forward, this ale is well balanced with a light, biscuity malt body that finishes dry. An excellent session beer! IBU: 50 ABV 5.7%

Kolsch is a light, malty German ale, brewed like a lager for maximum clarity and a bright, clean, refreshing taste. Malts: German Pilsner, CaraHell and Sauermalz. Hops: “Noble” Sterling gives it just a hint of hoppiness to balance the malt-forwardness. ABV: 5.0%

3) Summer Saison

Our summer seasonal Belgian farmhouse-style ale, Summer Saison is an effervescent, spicy and slightly tart beer brewed for those hot days around the harvest. Predominantly pilsner malt, with a touch of wheat and vienna malt, and floral Sterling hops. IBU: 25 ABV: 6%

Our IPA is very hop-forward with aromas of grapefruit and cedar as well as a resinous bitterness imparted by additions of Galena and Columbus hops. A simple but expertly designed grain bill compliments the hops by imparting subtle caramel and malt characters. IBU: 40 ABV: 6.2%

2) Brown Ale

This is your basic American-style Brown Ale. Six different malts and two types of hops come together in this beer to create a sublime blend of roasty, creamy and hoppy flavors. IBU: 27 ABV: 6%

3) Coffee/Orange-infused Blonde

Our Blonde Ale infused with coffee and orange.

Dick’s Brewing

Centralia

1) Dick’s Mountain Amber

Classic amber ale; Dick’s style. Large quantities of two special varieties of lightly roasted malts contribute a deep malt profile to this very drinkable and attractive ale. The bittering hop addition is designed to achieve a perfect balance: not bitter, not sweet – just right. Larger additions of Northwest flavor and aroma hops give our amber its delicious finish, which lingers on the palate. OG: 1.050 TG: 1.010 ABV: 5%

2) Dick’s IPA

This beer starts out as a nice pale ale until it reaches the kettle. Throughout the 90 minute boil four massive hop additions transform this beer into a hop-head’s dream come true. Aromatic Columbus hops from the Yakima Valley are added in large quantities for substantial bitterness, flavor and aroma. Fermentation is conducted with our house ale yeast, contributing to a clean finish and allowing the hops to show all the way through. The result is one of the hoppiest I.P.A.s on the market! ABV: 5.5%

Dirty Bucket Brewing

Woodinville

1) Ruski Porridge Double Oatmeal Coffee Stout

A perfect combination of specialty malts, together with a special coffee blend from Highland Coffee Co. and a healthy dose of oats, this oatmeal stout will leave you warm all over. IBU: 33 ABV: 5.5%

2) 1 Year Anniversary IPA

To celebrate our 1 year anniversary we took the grain bill from our flagship Dirty Amber and combined it with the Hop Schedule of our Filthy Hoppn IPA and sourced the yeast from our Dirty Amber to create our Anniversary IPA. Very balanced and a wonderful grapefruit aroma from the Citra Dry Hop makes this an IPA lovers favorite. IBU: 72 ABV: 6%

Swordfish Cascadian Dark Ale (CDA) is dark in color, with a prominent “Northwest” hoppy aroma – citrusy, piney and resinous – with sweet malt, hints of roastiness and toasted malt. The flavors strike a beautiful balance between citrusy Northwest hops and, to a lesser degree, roasted, chocolate malt or caramel notes. Despite it’s rich color, the body is more reminiscent of an India Pale Ale, not heavy like a porter or stout. IBU: 64 ABV: 7.5%

2) Leavenworth Premium Lager

A real, premium lager, this brew shows the distinct influence of malt and hops but with a slightly softer side. Combining traditional Bavarian pilsner flavors with the bolder Northwest craft beer profile, the result is unusually tasty. IBU: 23 ABV: 5%

3) Fish Tale Vicious Circle Amber Ale

Well balanced and full flavored, Vicious Circle Amber Ale has a rich, malty body with a pleasant caramel character derived from a special blend of six malts. A complex hop aroma, with a hint of floral and citrus, comes from a combination of Northwest hops. It has a deep copper hue and a rich, creamy head with a fine lace that almost seem to suggest the hints of nutty sweetness and toffee that are about to follow. IBU: 35 ABV: 5%

4) Spire Mountain Dark & Dry

Savor this refreshing glass of complexity. Dark & Dry’s assertive tartness is pleasingly balanced by a hint of molasses and brown sugar. More rounded and intricate than its sister ciders, this potion will appeal to beer aficionados, wine devotees, and cider enthusiasts alike. ABV: 5%

Fremont Brewing

Seattle

1) Fremont Summer Ale

Tangerine flower in a glass, endless days distilled into nectar of barley and hops. One grain, one hop. Simplicity….yet, so much more. ABV: 5.2%

Floral, citrusy and awesome. Anything so innocent and built like that just gotta be named Lucille. ABV: 6.85%

3) Brewer’s Choice TBA

Hale’s Ales Brewery and Pubs

Seattle & Silverdale

1) Hale’s Pale Ale

First brewed in 1983 as the brewery’s flagship beer, Hale’s Pale Ale established the pale ale category in the NW with its deliciousness, balance and drinkability. Come and taste why this beer has been a part of the NW craft beer scene for 30 years!

2) Hale’s Aftermath Imperial IPA

Aftermath Imperial IPA is a much anticipated Hale’s seasonal. Brewed with a pronounced hop profile and a malty backbone Aftermath is nonetheless balanced and approachable in flavor.

3) Supergoose IPA

A Quintessential Northwest Strong IPA. You know it. Come and have some. Never had it before? You are in for a real treat. Supergoose has a great floral hop character followed by a rich malt body.

4) Hale’s Kolsch

Hale’s award winning Kolsch, a perfect beer for the summer months in the Northwest. Very similar in flavor to a pilsner with just a bit more fruitiness from the special yeast. Clear. Crisp. Light. A sessionable and delicious beer.

Our mocha porter is brewed with local Forza coffee. The base of this tasty brew is our award winning Puget Sound porter. Mocha Porter is brewed with eight different malts to produce a smooth, well balanced dark beer. This tasty brew has big flavors of chocolate and coffee. IBU: 40 ABV: 5.4%

2) Mt. Takhoma Blonde

The Mt. Takhoma blonde is a light bodied, crisp and refreshing brew. German pilsner malt and a touch of wheat are used to produce this ale. Liberty hops provide the balance. This beer finishes crisp and dry. IBU: 18 ABV: 4.4%

This ESB has an inviting dark straw color. The toasted grain flavor goes very well with light hop finish. The ESB has a drier mouth feel than the pale ale, but not as bitter as an IPA. A pleasant session ale. IBU: 43 ABV: 4.5%

2) Termination Point

Termination Point Imperial IPA is a showcase for hops. Four Northwest hop varieties are added at five stages in the production of this full-bodied brew with the intention of exhibiting the subtleties of that noble flower. A strong profile of deeply caramelized malt – and a generous ABV – provides a strong foundation so that the hops can take center stage. The fruity and floral esters evolve in the glass and linger on the palette, but at just over 90 IBUs, this beer remains enjoyable to a wide audience.

3) Big Beef Oatmeal Stout

Big Beef Oatmeal Stout has a wonderful flavor of roasted barley grains that have been blended with rolled oats to give this stout a unique mouth feel that has a dry finish. Just enough Northern Brewer hops have been added to give this creamy-headed ale a fine balance. ABV: 5%

Iron Horse Brewery

Ellensburg

1) Iron Horse IPA

A highly approachable IPA with lots of hop flavor and aroma, mild bitterness, and a dry finish. Dosed late in the boil, as well as dry-hopped, this India Pale Ale focuses not on the bitterness in the finish, but instead on the flavor and aroma of the hops.

2) Brewer’s Choice

TBA

Kulshan Brewing

Bellingham

1) Bastard Kat IPA

Bastard Kat IPA is an American IPA, brewed in the style of West Coast IPAs. The light golden ale is topped with a thick white head. Generous doses of hops throughout the brewing process, including the hop back and dry hopping, give Bastard Kat a crisp, citrusy, hop aroma. The finish is dry and crisp, leaving you ready for another sip. IBU: 75 ABV: 6.6%

2) Red Cap Red

Red Cap Red is our Northwest twist on an Irish Red Ale. A combination of stewed crystal malts and roasted barley gives Red Cap its distinctive garnet color and light tan head. The aroma is malty sweet with a light hint of Northwest hops. The flavor is primarily toffee-like malt with a crisp hop balance and slightly dry finish from the roasted barley.

ABV: 5.5%

New Belgium Brewing

Seattle

1) Pluot Ale

Belgian Strong Ale brewed with Pluots. ABV: 10%

2) Shift Pale Lager

3) French Aramis IPA

A drier IPA for the Summer. Brewed with Aramis hops to create an aroma of fresh cut flowers and herbs. IBU: 74 ABV: 6.7%

Odin Brewing

Seattle

1) Freya’s Gold- Kolsch Syle Ale

A light, crisp, and refreshing ale. A very drinkable beer with a clean body and mild flavors. Freya’s Gold is also balanced with acidulated malt and brewed with a touch of ginger. IBU:23 ABV: 4.5%

Thor’s Sunstone – Belgian-Style Tripel is a dryer interpretation of this old world classic. The yeast notes are much more apparent in the nose than the renowned equinox and a touch of Spelt grain balances this brew with a light earthy note. IBU: 23 ABV: 7.9

Rainy Daze Brewing
Port Orchard

1) Mind Funk Coffee Pale Stout

This Pale Stout will mess up your mind do to the fact it looks like your standard pale. Yet smells and tastes much like a stout. This was made possible with the use of Sierra Nevada Columbian that we got from the Port Townsend Coffee Roasting Co. ABV: 7.7%

2) Belgian Bastard IPA

A spin on a NW style IPA, we use Columbus, Citra and Zythos hops, and then use a Belgian strong yeast. This gives this beer some very fruity esters that compliment the hops in such a way that you will be wanting more. ABV: 7%

Redhook’s twist on the Belgian style ale is the addition of fresh ginger, which adds a refreshing snappiness to this lighter-bodied wheat beer. IBU: 8 ABV: 5.8%

Roslyn Brewing

Roslyn

1) Brookside Lager

Pale lager beer made without the darker malts that we use in Roslyn Beer. It is hopped primarily with Yakima Hallertau hops, and may remind you of a beer you might find at a small gasthaus in Germany. ABV: 5.4%

2) Belgian Ale

This unfiltered, Belgian-Style Ale is deep golden in color and uses traditional Belgian malts and yeast, with an added uniqueness from the Calypso hop variety producing a smooth drinking beer with fruit aromas and a subtle bitterness. ABV: 6.5%

Schooner EXACT Brewing

Seattle

1) Stumptown Brown w/ Coffee

King St. Brown Ale with cold-brewed Stumptown Coffee. ABV: 5.5%

2) 3 Grid IPA

A northwest-style IPA uses a blend of hops from Yakima to give it a big, juicy, tropical, citrus flavor. The light caramel and soft bready malts balance but don’t interfere with the big hop character. ABV: 6.7%

3) Seamstress Union Raspberry Wheat Ale

Pours with a subtly “pink” hue. Locally-grown raspberries along with malted wheat give this fruit beer a refreshing “tartness.” Hallertau hops and a dry finish further distinguish this wheat from other Northwest fruit beer. ABV: 4.6%

Brewed with fresh blackberries with a light body with a licorice ending note. ABV: 6%

Slippery Pig Brewery

Poulsbo

1) Gullinkambi Kolsch

Our take on a summer favorite, Gullinkambi is a slightly tart wheat heavy beer that we brew with seasonally available fruits, then cellar age before dispensing. Like it’s namesake, Gullinkambi Kolsch announces the end of winter, but without sending the world into Ragnarok. ABV: 7%

2) Brewers Choice

TBA

Sound Brewery

Poulsbo

1) Monk’s Indiscretion Belgian Specialty Ale

Dry hopped, and fermented with an aromatic Belgian yeast strain, Monk’s Indiscretion has an intense tropical hoppy aroma and flavor, with balanced bitterness, and is scarily drinkable for such a strong beer. ABV: 10%

2) Sommerweizen Clear Wheat Ale

Sommerweizen is clear and clean with a delicate aroma of wheat, light fruit, and spice. Sommerweizen is refreshing, yet satisfying and full of flavor. ABV: 5%

3) Humulo Nimbus Double IPA

A towering thunderstorm of hops against a sky of clean, dry malt. Crisp yet eminently satisfying for the extreme hop lover, Humulo Nimbus has a balance that brings it all together into one seriously quaffable Double IPA. ABV: 8.5%

4) Dubbel Entendre Belgian Style Dubbel

Comforting aromas of chocolate malt and dark toffee, with a hint of banana and stone fruits. A dark abbey style ale with a subtle rich maltiness and a dry, spicy finish. ABV: 8.0%
